Management Department
Mission
The mission of the Department of Management is to assist students in the development
of knowledge and skills that are essential for a successful entry into business-related
professions and other organizations. Specifically, the department seeks to:
- acquaint students with the common body of knowledge needed for an entry-level position
in their field of study;
- improve the skills of students in the areas of problem solving, communication, and
knowledge of related technology;
- offer students an opportunity to enrich their knowledge through scholarly programs,
including global issues, and
- provide social service programs and activities to members of the community.
The Bachelor of Science Degree with a major in Management is awarded to those students
who complete the 120 semester hours program in Management (including MAN 301 and MAN
420) and meet the University and College of Business graduation requirements. The
27 hours in Management do not include General Business (GB) courses which are required
by the Department or the College of Business. Students are encouraged to see their
advisor for specific elective courses that will be helpful in their career goals.
Department Resources:
The Department sponsors and supports the Students in Free Enterprise organization
and the Management Club. The Management Club sponsors professional development activities
such as seminars on how to start a business, job search strategies, surviving corporate
politics, and field trips. Membership is open to all GSU students.
